Working with StudioWare
Control settings
The controls in a StudioWare panel are designed to send and receive various types of MIDI
information. This information can be transmitted to two possible destinations:
• A specific track in your project
• A MIDI output
When you want to record the movements of controls within a panel, you must make sure that MIDI
data from the control are directed to a MIDI track.
StudioWare Panel drawing speed
Some StudioWare panels use bitmap graphics to enhance their appearance. These graphics can
slow down the speed with which a panel is displayed on some slower PCs. You can turn off these
bitmap graphics by adding this line to the [WinCake] section of the Cakewalk.ini file, as follows.
PanelsShowWidgetBitmaps=0
To turn bitmap graphics on again, change the entry to:
PanelsShowWidgetBitmaps=1
For more information about the Cakewalk.ini file, see “Initialization files” on page 1287.
